not certain how i view an early committment from a player such as this neccessarily being an advantage? Better than flipping to elsewhere for sure but better than simply remaining uncommitted? Once he chooses everyone has a single target to attack vs a group of a half dozen or so as it now stands. Given we have had some issues with losing early committs and he will demonstrate he is a flipper should he committ? I wonder.
What do those of you who understand this process better than I think?

Four-star receiver Auden Tate (Tampa, Fla./Wharton) is trending South Carolina Carolina on 247Sports Crystal Ball. Three predictions are in, including one from myself and one from Florida Insider Luke Stampini earlier this morning- all are for the Gamecocks. There is a chance the 6-foot-4 pass catcher and Palmetto State native could commit to USC this summer.
